Tuesdays With Lazerbeak

Oh man, welcome back to the most shreddingest of shredding Tuesdays With Lazerbeak posts yet. Just got back from another Shredders mini-tour in time to fill you in on all sorts of goings-ons before we head out again in a few days for the East Coast. Lots to talk about, so let’s jump right in.

Last Friday we released the Dangerous Jumps Instrumentals on all digital stores and streaming services. You’ll get all the heat knockers from Dangerous Jumps plus a couple bonus instros from the first EP for less than the cost of an Arby’s value meal. Download them from iTunes or stream them from Spotify below.

To celebrate the release of these slamming lava bangers, we’ve decided liberate the Dangerous Jumps acapellas as well and throw a full-blown remix contest for all vocalists, rappers, singers, producers, and DJs. Check out all the details below on how to enter.

PRODUCER/DJ DIRECTIONS

Pick one of the DANGƐΓOUϟ JUMPϟ acapellas and create your own remix with new backing music. Bounce out your song and email the file or download link to:

RAPPER/SINGER/VOCALIST DIRECTIONS

by the deadline of Friday, March 2nd (no attachments over 15 MB please).

PUBLIC VOTING AND TOP 10

On Monday, March 5th we will post all of the submissions in two separate categories: vocalists and producers. The public will be able to vote through Monday, March 12th, at which point the Top 5 most voted submissions in each category will be decided. All 10 winners will receive a very special Shredders merch care package courtesy of the Doomtree Webstore.

SHREDDERS GRAND PRIZE WINNERS

On Tuesday, March 20th we will announce Shredders’ top pick for best vocal remix and best production remix. The grand prize vocalist winner will receive an exclusive unreleased collaborative beat from Lazerbeak and Paper Tiger for use on a future song of their choice, free of charge. The grand prize production winner will receive an exclusive unreleased verse from P.O.S and Sims for use on a future song of their choice, free of charge. Both winners will receive lots of social media love from Doomtree and a special artist spotlight on an upcoming edition of Tuesdays With Lazerbeak, and each completed new song will be released digitally on Doomtree Records.

HAVE FUN!

Booooom! There you have it. Make sure to spread the word to all your musical friends and let’s make this thing a party. And speeeeeeaaaaaaaking of parties (SEGUE SEGUE), our excellent FRIENDTOGRAPHER Graham Gardner was along for the ride once again throughout this most recent Shredders tour of the Midwest and Canada. We hit Columbus, Toronto, Ann Arbor, and Chicago last week and Graham was always posted up grabbing some super sweet pics. Check out this extra special photo recap from the adventures of P.O.S, Sims, Paper Tiger, Lazerbeak, Astronautalis, and our special guest bud ShowYouSuck below, and make sure to follow Graham on InstaGraham right HERE.

BLAOW! Such a fun trip. Cannot wait to do it all over again on the East Coast this week. We’ll be in Boston on Thursday (2/8), Philly on Friday (2/9), Brooklyn on Saturday (2/10), and DC on Sunday (2/11). Please hit up all your friends and come on out to party with us. These shows have been an absolute joy so far. Check out the remaining dates below and grab your tickets right HERE.

In final Shredders news this week, we’ve got a brand new episode of our weekly mini-podcast “Does It Shred?” for you. As always, thanks a millzo to Adam Dunn for shooting and editing these ridiculous explorations into pop culture and virtual reality. You can click on the YouTube screen to navigate in 360 throughout the room while we wax philosophically this week about the career of Legend God Nicolas Cage. Enjoy!
